I know this is a little OT for the list and blatent advertising but
inkeeping with the thread topic, I've just finished a Windows playlist
generator for internet/radio stations.  Suitable for highly automated
situations.  Features anti-song repeat & anti-artist repeat options.  No
song maintenance required.  Works on a rotation or "clock" basis.  Produces
a personalised HTML playlist for your website.  Natively supports OGG files
of course (in addition to MP3 & WAV).  Includes a scheduler to start the
playlist playing at the right time, etc, etc.
StationPlaylist Creator http://www.StationPlaylist.com
A live example of the HTML playlist can be seen here
http://SoulFM.stationplaylist.com/playlist
Not free but the lite version is only $26.

Long live OGG!
